Abstract
The results indicated that: 1 substantial amounts of genetic variability existed in the cultivars observed; 2 heterosis was mainly expressed in pod yield; 3 additive gene action played a relatively more important role in controlling most of the agronomic characters compared to non-additive gene action; 4 heritability for pod length was high and that for pod yield and seed protein content was low; 5 of the three methods used for developing high yielding lines the average selection index was found to be more effective compared to visual pedigree and bulk population methods; and 6 Lines 12 13 18 20 and 30 were quite promising in the regional trials and among them Line 30 being above average stability gave the highest yield
